I just finished building the control yokes for the gunner station chairs. I'll get the entire piece painted up and glued to the proper place some time today.

 

[scratchy]

Here's a small update, I finished the gun turret interiors.

You have GOT to be bleeping kidding ME!
You have fiber optics in those teeny tiny gunwells?

Man, you continue to amaze me

 

[scratchy]

You have GOT to be bleeping kidding ME!

WHAT?!?!?!?! No fiber optics? How was this done? Or if you tell people with the magic cease to work?
LOL ;D ;D ;D

 

[scratchy]

If I do tell, then the magic ceases to work, the Mayan calander comes into effect and then we're all doomed.




Actually, it's the same technique that I used for the cockpit lights.

 

[ModelMakerMike]

So.... after searching a lot of the previous pages on this thing... I finally saw a page with the lighted cockpit. And you drilled out holes and then filled them with Tamiya clear..So, was there just a single LED behind them then?
However you accomplished it, it looks smashing!

 

[Quaralane]

Fiber, or none, Scratchy, that looks frigging amazing

 

[scratchy]

Yes, only one LED, embedded in the resin. Pages 5,6,11 and 12 will show the process.
